Yesterday’s Results for Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets

Doc's 7* NBA Tuesday Total

Analysis: 7-Unit Play Take Boston/Brooklyn UNDER 222.5 (7:30 p.m. EST, Tuesday November 18) Brooklyn started off the season as one of the worst defensive teams where the opponent could get a bucket almost every trip down the court, but Coach Fernandez called his team out on their defensive effort prior to the Toronto matchup and they have responded with three straight excellent defensive efforts, allowing 119, 106 and 105 points in their last three games. Even though Boston is not an elite team this season, this is still the New York/Boston rivalry and a Boston visit to Brooklyn will be one of the bigger home games of the year so we expect the Nets to respond with another solid defensive performance. This could be a letdown spot for the Celtics, who have this game sandwiched between their last game against the Clippers and their next one against the Magic. Both of these teams are in the Bottom 10 offensively this season. Boston is the second ranked defense in the NBA for points allowed. We think this one should go well under the posted total.
